All offers of employment at ANKIT INDIA are contingent upon clear results of a
thorough background check. Background checks will be conducted on all final
candidates and on all employees who are promoted, as deemed necessary.

Background checks will include:

 Social Security Verification: validates the applicant's Social Security

number, date of birth and former addresses.
 Prior Employment Verification: confirms applicant's employment with the
listed companies, including dates of employment, position held and additional
information available pertaining to performance rating, reason for departure
and eligibility for rehire. This verification will be run on the past two employers
or the previous five years, whichever comes first.
 Personal and Professional References: calls will be placed to individuals
listed as references by the applicant.
 Educational Verification: confirms the applicant's claimed educational
institution, including the years attended and the degree/diploma received.
 Criminal History: includes review of criminal convictions and probation. The
following factors will be considered for applicants with a criminal history:
o The nature of the crime and its relationship to the position.
o The time since the conviction.
o The number (if more than one) of convictions.
o Whether hiring, transferring or promoting the applicant would pose an
unreasonable risk to the business, its employees or its customers and
vendors.

Procedure

Final candidates must complete a background check authorization form and return it
to HR Dept. 

Human Resources will order the background check upon receipt of the signed
release form, and either internal HR staff or an employment screening service will
conduct the checks. A designated HR representative will review all results.

The HR representative will notify the HR manager regarding the results of the check.
In instances where negative or incomplete information is obtained, the manager of
Human Resources will assess the potential risks and liabilities related to the job's
requirements and determine whether the individual should be hired. If a decision not
to hire or promote a candidate is made based on the results of a background check.

Background check information will be maintained in a file separate from employees'

personnel files for a minimum of Three years.

ANKIT INDIA reserves the right to modify this policy at any time without notice.
